    The paper had three parts & each part had two sections:

    • Part-I- Physics with a total of 25 questions – Sec-I had 20 Multiple choice questions with Single correct answers & Sec-II had 5 Numerical based questions. The marking scheme for multiple-choice questions was +4 for a correct response, -1 for an incorrect response, 0 if not attempted. The marking scheme for numerical based questions was +4 for correct response and 0 in all other cases.
    • Part-II- Chemistry with a total of 25 questions – Sec-I had 20 Multiple choice questions with Single correct answers & Sec-II had 5 Numerical based questions. The marking scheme for multiple-choice questions was +4 for a correct response, -1 for an incorrect response, 0 if not attempted. The marking scheme for numerical based questions was +4 for correct response and 0 in all other cases.
    • Part-III- Mathematics with a total 25 questions – Sec-I had 20 Multiple choice questions with Single correct answers & Sec-II had 5 Numerical based questions.

    Level of difficulty as per the students

    The level of difficulty as per feedback from students on 7th Jan 2020 (Forenoon session).

    • Mathematics – Easy to Moderate level. Some questions involved calculations. All chapters covered in Calculus and Coordinate Geometry. No question from Height and Distance in Trigonometry.
    • Physics – Moderate level. All chapters covered. Students reported it was lengthy. A few questions were of mixed concept type.
    • Chemistry – Easy. Students reported questions were largely from NCERT especially chapters of Inorganic Chemistry. They felt Class XI topics had more weight.

    Overall the paper was of Easy to Moderate level as per students. As compared to last year paper was moderate to a difficult level as per students. Students felt one question in Physics had incomplete data. Rest no errors were reported as such from other subjects the students left the exam hall at 12:30 pm.
